Ask HN: What features would you want in a board game app?
If you were building an app for board gamers to discover, enhance, and maybe buy board games, what features would you want to see?

Have a series of orthogonal tags:
- "own" / "want to buy"
- "played" / "want to play"
- rank them on how much you enjoyed playing 'em.
A UI that's cleaner than BoardGameGeek's, but not as "clean" as the new Reddit interface. Functional, but not smoothed down for a toddler. UX matters - I shouldn't have to click three times to add a game to a list/tag it/etc. (ahem, Goodreads.)
I fully don't care about any social element of this. I've got my own way of asking friends whether they want to play a board game with me.
